Studio

Too upgrade my studio it says I need 10 people including the actors I am only allowed 8

Response from developer

Thank you for reporting this — you were right, and it was a bug on our side. Promoting to Major Studio asked for 10 signed talent while a Mid-Major roster is capped at 8, so the requirement was impossible to meet. It's already fixed: the top tiers now need 7 / 12 / 20 signed talent, all reachable within your current cap. The update is on its way to the App Store and will arrive in few days. Your save is safe — after updating, just advance one week and the studio promotes on its own. Sorry for the frustration, and thanks for helping us catch it.

Very Fun Full Of Things To Do!

So far this game has been super entertaining with a lot of different aspects to manage which keeps me super interested! Your own studio, Career, social media, family, friendships, charity, fans, stocks & so much more which i was pleasantly surprised when i first downloaded

The family aspect is my absolute favorite part of this game so far having famous pets, kids and a tv show is so cool and secondary is the studio boss mode! This game is so creative and with some more improvement i can see it being a long time favorite and a highly rated top game. Great job to the developers!

There’s still a few bugs that need to be worked on in studio boss mode like being unable to progress pass mid major studio because staff count is maxed lower than needed to progress and create tv series is stuck also if you’re having twins there needs to be two name slots lol

Addictive

I love this game. You can play for hours and not realize it. Sidenote, I noticed there’s another game out there that looks exactly like yours, but theirs is way buggier so good job on yours working as it should. I don’t understand why the ratings are so low. This is at least a 4 1/2 star game if not, five stars.

Great potential! Economy needs tuning

I’m really enjoying the game loop and the viral mechanics are creative. Thank you for making this!

A few suggestions to improve balance:
- Payout bug: Viral posts display earnings over 100 trillion but only deposit 1 trillion. This feels like a display/calculation glitch. Please fix so the payout matches what’s shown.
- Tax system: The current tax returns take nearly all earnings, which makes progression frustrating. Can the rate be reduced or scaled better?
- Savings cap: Please increase the savings account limit above 500 million so we can actually save for big purchases in late game.

Overall love the game. Hope to see these addressed in the next update! Thanks for listening to the community 🙏

No

The developer pulled a bait and switch on the players. I bought Creator Mode just for the app to be pulled from the App Store a few days after. Now, after requesting a refund for not being able to access my in app purchase, the developer suddenly decided to get back on the App Store so my refund can get denied. Do not purchase anything. Unless you’re okay with the app/support suddenly disappearing whenever it’s convenient

Response from developer

We're sorry for the frustration you experienced. The app was temporarily unavailable while we addressed technical and administrative issues, and it has since been restored. App Store refund requests are reviewed and processed directly by Apple according to their policies, so developers aren't able to approve or deny them. Thank you for your feedback.

Great Game

Great Game Indeed My Only Issue Is That When It Comes To Relationships, I Cant Figure Out How That Works. The Dating App Doesn’t Work Properly. It Just Lets You Swipe But Thats About It. Also Sometimes Certain Things On The Phone Do Not Let You Access It. Other Than Those Minor Problems You Guys Have Done A Great Job With This Game.

Response from developer

Thanks for the feedback! For relationships, make sure to use the Dating app to find compatible matches, the Contacts app to build and improve relationships, and the Family app to access family interactions and activities. We’re continuing to expand and improve these systems with future updates. 🎬✨

I’m not updating this review again. It’s a two star review because it’s a two star game

Update: there are still bugs and “features” that aren’t executed well and actually make the game annoying. I bought Creator Mode and it was not worth it. I won’t even attempt to get a refund.
No I will not update this to a fake 5 star review because of your “reminders” on discord.

Money limit

What a fantastic game but there is only one issue I can’t go further than 1 trillion

Response from developer

Thank you for the 5-star review and for reporting this. There is currently no intended money limit in Spotlight Dreams, so this may be a bug or something specific to your save. Please reach out to us on email and we'll be happy to investigate and help resolve it. 🎬✨

Okay

Updating my review: The game is has potential but it’s riddled with bugs. The developer tries to fix them every update, and there are frequent updates so that’s a good sign.

Roles

For 20 million usd plus roles, I never get them even though my stats are maxed out at all 100 and it is very hard to stabilize your industry trust, for the roles, I get a 20mil+ role in the odds of 1 in 100

Response from developer

Thanks for the feedback. Role acceptance isn't based on stats alone. Factors such as how you answer audition questions, your fame level, industry trust, genre mastery, and overall career progression all affect your chances of landing major roles. We're continuing to balance and improve these systems with future updates. 🎬✨

Not quite ready

Actually getting cast feels quite unintuitive, and such a long process (multiple in game weeks + trivia) just to get declined just isn’t fun. UI needs to be more tailored to a mobile game experience.

Response from developer

Thanks for the feedback. The casting system was designed to make building an acting career feel more realistic, with auditions becoming easier as your character gains experience, fame, and industry connections. That said, we understand it may feel too punishing early on, and we're reviewing ways to improve the experience in future updates. 🎬✨ Discord: https://discord.gg/Tem89zB3Jj

Player Support/Gameplay

This simulator is excellent and exactly what I was looking for in a game such as this. It’s very realistic and I love the strategy required to progress. It also has several different aspects that all go into dictating how successful one may be in their career which I think is unique. Also, the devs are extremely helpful and responsive when it comes to issues with the game. Just recently they had a bug fixed within 2 days of it being noticed.

Cool but buggy

I was very cool and I liked all the menus and options, but it kept reverting back to week 31 and no matter how many times I advanced it would go back to week 31 with no energy. A few updates and bugs fixed and its a winner.

Response from developer

I want to like it but…

I’m trapped in a glitch to where the week progresses to week 18 momentarily before switching back to week 17. I reset the app, reinstalled, and started a new life but still the same issue. Sad because it truly has so much potential! Hopefully this gets resolved quickly so I can give it another shot!
